settings. This setting is useful when you want to shoot pictures while checking the results of the shot on
the Live View screen.
Setting Effect OFF:
Shows Live View without the effects of exposure compensation, white balance, [Creative Style], or
[Picture Effect]. When this setting is used, you can easily check the image composition.
Live View is always displayed with the appropriate brightness even in [Manual Exposure] mode.
Note
When the shooting mode is set to [Intelligent Auto], [Superior Auto], [Sweep Panorama], [Movie] or
[Scene Selection], [Live View Display] cannot be set to [Setting Effect OFF].
When [Live View Display] is set to [Setting Effect ON], you may have difficulty checking the
composition, as the Live View Display may seem too dark or too bright. If such a phenomenon occurs,
set [Live View Display] to [Setting Effect OFF]. When [Live View Display] is set to [Setting Effect OFF],
the brightness of the shot image will not be the same as that of the displayed Live View.
Hint
When you use a third-party flash, such as a studio flash, Live View Display may be dark for some
shutter speed settings. When [Live View Display] is set to [Setting Effect OFF], Live View Display will
be displayed brightly, so that you can easily check the composition.
